Phone engineer. Know how to repair phones. 100m phones in southern Nigeria at least. Imagine the statistics of spoilt phone daily. Your Okada competition are illiterates from Niger republic. Anybody can ride a bike. Not everyone can repair an iPhone 11 Pro. Soon you can start selling phones too then laptops and have a big gadget stores. Many people ride okada for years with nothing to show. Think about the stress. 400 kilometers for 100 naira. You’ll do it 100 times before you make 10k. And you’ll buy fuel. You can make 10k on just one repair. Wise up.

I was shocked my phone repairer was overcharging me ₦12k for screen repair. That's apart from the workmanship. He told me the screen was 28k when it was actually 16k. These guys are merciless

There's no future in Okada. You might as well just throwaway your education.

And this is why so many of you will remain forever in the dumps. Because you are all too mentally lazy to improve yourselves but will prefer to learn by rote.

Trial and error.

A thinkpad is one of the easiest devices to take apart,and there are multiple videos on the net showing how different models can be opened.

Yet when my laptop had an issue, one joker would up destroying the keyboard because like you, he celebrates the mental laziness of trial and error.

But that is probably how you seperate the real experts from the dilletantes

I don't no who u are referring to as somany of you.cos if its me.am swimming in millions and have investments and workers.keep looking for them you people.even as a phone software engineer.in heart plaza maraba I use to go to alaba and pick uk used phones to sale in the streets.so mind wat you say.

Wrong way to evaluate a business.

Okada: Start making money on Day 1 but has vagaries. Occupational hazards, touts and immense competition but you are always flexible with working times and locations. Good if you're a field person.

Phone repair: Takes time to develop and business revenue is not a daily constant except you're located at a phone sales and repair hub. Less risk and opportunities for expansion through vertical and horizontal integration.

Drawbacks include less flexible locations, competition depending on location and really leans on your technical skills.

Pick your poison.

Verbosity doesn't always mean communication. What did you say here that wasn't covered in my comment?

Have u visited a busy phone repair shop

Have you visited the not busy phone repair shop? Everywhere cannot be "computer village"....each one has their pros and cons, you don't know ops present financial needs nor whether he is already proficient in phone repairs...

Do you know what 400 km is?

Please I need your advice on this topic; if you have experience. Which one generates more income. Thanks
There is money in phone repairs BUT THE WAHALA IN IT IS ALSO VERY GREAT. I Was once a phone engineer but I ran,. They can just bring a phone for you to repair,after you loose the nuts phone nor go on again. Dem go say,do the phone back as you first see am..haha.

Na so police and soldiers dey find my oga come store..na I run. Many phone engineers later go into selling of phone parts and accessories to avoid the troubles of phone engineering. If you know you have heart to take troubles go for phone engineering but if you don't like wahala don't try it.

Okada self nor good,Find another work. Keke better pass okada.

It's an insult to compare phone engineers to okada riders. If you want to be a phone repairer you must be very technical and smart, it's not a job you learn because you need to make money.

grin you seemed not to understand phone repair business. Maybe you just want to learn how to change mouthpiece, speaker and some screens. If you truly want to go into phone repair business you won't be comparing it with Okada. Some phone engineer make over 50k daily and some make up to 100k sef. Although there are some that don't make up to 1k daily o. But it depends on how well you want to know the job. To be very good at phone you'll spend well over 1m on learning and buying tools.

I kid you not
So importing phone screens and repair parts is good business...

Pls can you point me to where exactly I can get these
Good prices in bulks, is it possible to do direct purchase myself online, AE, Alibaba...

Also, can say 300k to 400k a good capital start for this business?
